In The Yard

Gee…I sure am happy with my new cordless lawn mower, it works great! Now that I have my garden ready for plants I need to go and find some plants to plant. I think I’ll plant starts this year and maybe try starting from seed next year. Between the weather and the time it took [...]

Summer at last!

Yes, today is the first day of summer and the longest day of sunlight for those in the northern hemisphere. I just love it. Every thing is green and blooming again. The birds are out and cheerfully eating as many bugs as they can…go birds!

Organic Apples

I was informed by my youngest, that they ate the last organic gala apple and that I needed to go buy more. Well, we went to the store today and began to pick out a good bag of organic apples, but then noticed the price had jumped from $4 something to $7 something and the [...]

Storms

Wow! This weather has been crazy!

Yesterday it was sooo nice out, it felt like summer. Then today, the temp. dropped, thunder storms off and on, and rain, rain, rain!

I like rain when its drizzling and its warm outside and nicer weather, but when its gray sky and raining a storm outside….  I don’t like that [...]

Electric Lawn Mower

Wow! The best buy ever, our new electric lawn mower has arrived, and it is cordless! It starts right up without any hassle and mows great. It sounds like a big hair drier…sooo quiet, I like that a lot. I also like the fact that I don’t have to buy gas to mow my lawn, [...]

Today, they manufacture products in categories that include, face care, body care, hair care, lip care, men’s grooming, baby care and outdoor remedies, all [...]

Organic/Natural Make-up

I was looking online for some new make-up that was healthy for my skin and ran across a few websites.

www.lavera.com and
www.bareescentuals.com looked like a couple of the good ones…

Lavera provides 100% natural cosmetics that have been proven effectiveness and is big mostly in Europe.
But don’t worry! They are [...]

The Lawn Needs Mowing

It took awhile for the grass to turn green after the long winter white…sooo glad the white is gone. I really like green! It did not take long for the nice green grass to grow and then begin to seed. The dandelions grow even faster than the grass, and so many tall yellow flowers in [...]

Compost Piles

Don’t you love the sight of wonderful vegetables growing in a garden?

I do!!!

And the best way to organically do that, is to create a compost pile. All ya gotta do is get a wooden crate (or another something as long as it’s biodegradable) and put stuff in it! WOO HOO!!!

Okay. [...]
